A new luxury hotel group has paid $25 million for two landmark Hunter Valley wineries, Ben Ean and one of the Drayton family estates, with plans to build a $120 million five-star hotel and tourism complex in some of Australia’s oldest vineyards.
The HVL Hotels group is planning the luxury complex for a consolidated 68-hectare site in tourist hotspot Pokolbin, about a two-hour drive north of Sydney.
